Top Trump agency recovers eye-popping sum after launching DOGE task force
Story by Deirdre Heavey • 22h

U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Scott Turner announced a new Department of Government Efficiency task force on Thursday to "eliminate waste, fraud and abuse" at his federal agency.

DOGE revealed that $1.9 billion in HUD money had been recovered as of Friday, saying the funds were misplaced during the Biden administration and were "earmarked for the administration of financial services, but were no longer needed."

DOGE said it worked with Turner to release the funds, and they are now available for use by the U.S. Department of Treasury.

Turner said HUD launched its own DOGE Task Force to review how the agency is spending taxpayer money. HUD employees will lead the task force with a mission to maximize their budget and efficiency, reporting their findings directly to Turner.

I didn't know there were any blacks in the Trump administration.  I'd have thought the MSM would have been praising Trump for that.   Come to think of it, the MSM wasn't too nice to Dr. Ben Carson, the rocket scientists masking as reporters didn't have much good to say about him either.

It would be nice to see how many section 8 recipients had earnings in excess of 35K.
